Tick control is a subject that has stimulated intense interest for more than a century. This article is a commentary on the research needs for tick control proposed in Peter Willadsen's recent article and it calls attention to tick control strategies that were either poorly represented or omitted from the latter. Special consideration is given to host-targeted devices to control disease vector ticks infesting wildlife, to pheromone-impregnated decoys for attracting and killing ticks in the natural environment and on hosts, and to more up-to-date advances in vaccine development.
蜱虫控制是一个在一个多世纪以来一直引发强烈关注的课题。本文是对彼得·维拉森近期文章中提出的蜱虫控制研究需求的评论，它提请人们注意在后者中要么体现不足要么被遗漏的蜱虫控制策略。特别关注了用于控制侵扰野生动物的病媒蜱虫的宿主靶向装置、用于在自然环境和宿主上吸引并杀死蜱虫的信息素浸渍诱饵，以及疫苗开发方面的最新进展。
